I honestly do not understand gaijins insistance on nerfing the stormer at every single chance they get. The last patch felt especially bad. The missiles are practically unuseable outside of the auto track in the ipad screen and the radar cant hold a lock to save its life. It also baffles me as to why gaijin removed the ovepressure from the missiles yet still insist on keeping them explosive instead of solid projectiles. I am also sure someone else has probably done the calculations on how much the missiles should actually pen instead of the 30mm that they currently do ingame
Yeah they needlessly made the lock susceptible to flares/chaff when it should be immune. But I think this affects all SACLOS systems now? I’m not too sure.
It happens alot in other IRST vehicles to me.
my conspiracy is that they dont add it cause it would be a decently effective smiter of light vehicles.
A tank that can go hull down and be basically immune to anything but he thats able to deal with most tanks it would face? How could they ever add such a thing.

Stormer HVM can no longer take out combat drones now either. The lock just jitters so much that its impossible to aim accurately and the randomised flight paths of the missiels mean that hitting such a narrow target is actually impossible

Always been hard, but now it truly is impossible to hit yes. Its more to do with the inconstant scatter of the hittiles which go everywhere but where your cursor goes.
Its now impossible to use without using the radar screen and auto track, even then the auto track isnt great and causes you to miss against helis most of the time.
Tells you alot when i no longer play it as much when it got given its radar screen we’ve been wanting for so long because they made it basically worthless at the same time, usual gaijin shinanigans.

Now I’ve noticed it’s even worse, sometimes when using radar screen it just… doesn’t aim at the locked target anymore? So the missile just flies straight, or it tries to lead the target, but in completely the wrong direction or amount, so it misses completely… Plus we still need it to lead the target properly at close range, like it does IRL, even the MANPADS version gives you a lead!!
